This is 5 Christina Street on the 1861 census:

No luck, but I wonder when Christina Street was built, exactly? There are a lot more enumeration districts for Cardiff in 1861 than there were in 1851. I found a newspaper report from 1852 where new houses were going to be built in Christina Street, so could it be that the first houses there were built after the 1851 census?

Hmm, this could be a coincidence, but the Anne Eliza Parsons with MMN Broom was born in 1884, and there is this marriage in 1908:
https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageview...e&pId=91590025 25 Feb 1908 St Paul, Worthing: Ernest Bacon, 28, plumber, marries Annie Eliza Parsons, 24, spinster, daughter of John Parsons, plasterer. Residence for both is 32 Stanley Street, Worthing. One of the witnesses is an Albert Charles Parsons.

Never mind - on the 1911 census Annie Eliza Bacon's birthplace is Worthing, and there are two birth registrations which fit, so her father is not the right plasterer!

I keep on going down similar rabbit holes, Kite. All the mothers seem to have at least two partners, without necessarily marrying them.
This might have been the baptism of Elizabeth Bidgood: https://www.ancestry.co.uk/imageview...a2&pId=2879656 Elizabeth, daughter of John and Elizabeth Broom bp 18 November 1868, Stamford Terrace, St James, he a Butterman. as there is this: BROOM, ELIZABETH SUMMERS GRO Reference: 1868 D Quarter in KENSINGTON Volume 01A Page 212
